What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
I am a part-time lifeguard at a hotel where there is a lot of activity, meaning there are always kids playing the water, running around, etc... The area is large and geared towards young crowd, I would say the majority of the pool crowd is between 3 yrs to 12 yrs old.
During my employment, about a year ago I met a another lifeguard who shared the same shift and we began dating. We were exclusive for over 12 months. And just like most young relationships we grew apart when college started, found there was a bigger world and we both agreed to call it quits about three to five months ago
Currently he asked if I would be interested in getting back together and I told him no, ever since than at the workplace he has been rude and bullying, but really nothing to report to my supervisor, I was able to tolerate most it.
Yesterday it reached a point that I had to report it to my supervisor, we are not allowed to have our mobile devices on the deck while on the clock. So how when I left my phone in the back room he was able to access mt emails and he felt that my activities at school are something to be shared with. Seeing I joined the boosters and now exposed athletes he must have gotten jealous or something that lead him to yell at me on the deck that “you are nothing but whore”.
You cam imagine how embraced and upset I was, it really impacted me in away that made my workday counterproductive, especially when I am responsible for the well been of children as they are using the pool.
I came home and was very distressed so I called my supervisor and informed him of the incident. My ex-boyfriend is friendly with our supervisor so I want to be sure this is addressed properly, fairly and not hear it is not their problem because we use to. The incident happened while I was on the clock and at the workplace.
I do not want to see my ex-boyfriend loose his job, just change our schedules so we don't share the deck. Because the workplace is becoming an uncomfortable environment where I am be bullied, harassed and abusive.
Being that our supervisor is friendly with ex-boyfriend and probably does not deal with escalating and investigating claims of bullying, harassment and abusive behaviors.
Being this is my first time ever filing a complaint in any workplace, I would appreciate someone to educate me on how something like this would normally be investigated and what actions are suppose to take place? So I know it is not a matter of my ex-boyfriend being friendly with the supervisor that this does not get addressed with the same sense of urgency I expressed? We are not union but there should be NY labor lays that protects me from an abusive and harassing workplace where literally I do not need to yelled at that I am a whore in-front of a bunch of children and their parents.
